Ok got a question......I am having trouble figuring out these two cylinder looking things on my Z. First one is the one i took off that located under the front bumper, in front of the a/c condenser. Its got two nipples one labeled "in" and the other "out". The other one is located on the passenger side right behind the front bumper and below the headlight. I cant seem to find neither one of them in the FSM, so anyone have an idea on what they are.

The second one wouldn't happen to be the charcoal canister, would it?

No its not the charcoal canister, i positioned the item wrong. Its above the oil cooler and behind the P/S turn signal.
